In this farmhouse-style bathroom remodel, the homeowners' vision was brought to life through a series of transformative changes. The outdated bathtub was replaced with a shower, offering a more modern and functional bathing experience. Broken old vanity cabinets were updated to a new and improved version, instantly improving both aesthetics and functionality. The removal of the outdated and unappealing tile from the bathroom walls created a fresh canvas for the transformation. Clean white tiles were chosen for the shower, providing a bright and crisp backdrop, while a sleek, darker tile was selected for the flooring, offering a striking contrast. The removal of the old vanity completely transformed the space, making it unrecognizable. The introduction of a new wood vanity, along with nickel hardware and a showerhead, brought warmth and character to the room, infusing it with farmhouse charm. The addition of new lighting fixtures, a stylish mirror, and other thoughtful details completed the look, elevating the space from boring to stylish and adding a touch of personality. The result was a completely different bathroom, exuding farmhouse style, and offering a delightful and inviting atmosphere.

After decades of drastic alterations, and demolition of the second and third story, this grand estate was reduced to a pink Bermuda style ranch house. The current owners returned it to a suggestion of its original state. Beamed ceilings, working fireplace, period woodwork and historic finishes draw out the dignity of its past, and make them part of life in his century. The main house overlooks terraced yards, stonewalls and a landscaped pool area. The formal interiors frame sweeping views of treetops and seascapes.

Living room - small eclectic open concept carpeted living room idea with blue walls, a standard fireplace, a tile fireplace and no tv

This home’s classic roof structure and brick facade were hidden by over grown trees and shrubs. It cried out for architectural detail. Boring aluminum windows, rough cedar exterior trim and a front door assembly with peeling paint did little to enhance its curb appeal. It needed an exterior boost to keep it from remaining an ordinary home despite being located in an extraordinary five-acre park like setting. Ripe for an upgrade it presented a unique design build challenge to unlock its hidden potential as one of the areas outstanding homes. The addition of the cast stone front porch and balustrade gives a “been there for decades” look and feel. Windows were relocated and resized. Custom copper dormers, ornamental iron window guards and decorative cast stone embellishments were added to provide the architectural detail that brings this home to life. The low maintenance stone and new clad divided light wood windows in conjunction with balanced landscaping frame the entrance. Courtyards with stone balustrades and a stone fountain on either side of the entry complete the exterior transformation of a plain home into an extraordinary estate.

Everlast Siding & Composite Deck Project, Hopedale, MA Full strip of worn and rotted wood siding and trim. Exterior of house wrapped with “Rain Drop” housewrap. All windows and doors sealed with weather protective tape. Inside and outside corners to be CertainTeed. Window & door casements replaced with PVC brickmold. Everlast composite siding in Slate color installed. Also installed a new 20 x 30’ deck with Trex Composite decking and railings. What Is Everlast Siding? Everlast Advanced Composite Siding is water resistant and impermeable to wood-boring insects. Guaranteed. You will never have to replace damaged boards or trim due to weather/insect damage like you would other materials. Moreover, thanks to Everlast’s advanced composite technology, your siding will never swell, bow, rot, expand, or contract – maintaining your home’s beautiful exterior, for life. The face of Everlast planks are made from a highly durable and fade-resistant acrylic layer that is chemically bonded to a color-coordinated substrate. Because the cap and substrate are similar in color, should the face ever become scratched or dented, thereby revealing the substrate, these imperfections are less visible. Lastly, each Everlast plank is embossed with the imprint of a plank of real cedar, making Everlast Advanced Composite Siding the most natural looking, UV-resistant product in the market.

Dennis and Joe have a large, light-filled house. New construction meant lofted space and open floor plans with traditional styling. Running a busy dental practice by day and engaged in a rich social life by night, this couple needed a professional to take the lead on making their house a home. That’s my cue! They wanted to take risks, and stay away from “matchy-matchy”. We gussied up a plain ol’ TV room and gave it a healthy dose of luxury. Our plan was initially inspired by an abstract painting hanging over their stone fireplace. We brought in their love of the outdoors to make things cozy and used family furniture whenever possible for nostalgia and comfort. I took their love for one-of-a-kind objects and started making a design plan, aiming to solve their biggest frustration: the family room. They had a tortured relationship with a “forgotten family room,” a great space that was spacious and bright, but not at all cozy or joyful, and certainly not “them.” I wanted to create a cozy space functional for everyday curling up with puppies and watching TV after dinner, yet chic enough for hosting the pre-dinner kitchen overflow and cocktails during parties. I went looking for contrasting textures and materials. I wanted to balance patterns and scale, and use non-traditional colors as neutrals to create an overall sense of “BAM!” Dennis and Joe loved the nod to the classics juxtaposed with new and different globally-inspired pieces. For this project our design aesthetic can be described as Middle Eastern/tribal meets mid-century modern. We played to their sensible side with proportion and balance, and stayed as far away from boring/bleh as we could. From there we moved on to other spaces.. We added colorful pillows and sheer drapery to finish off their formal living room. We kept an inherited bedroom set from Dennis’ Mom and added color, draperies, and pillows to overhaul the guest bedroom. Their project was not a rip-and-replace, we weren’t starting from scratch with a blank piece of paper. Rather, our goal was to take what was already there and make it better, more like them. Using functionality first, we focused on giving the house a soothing, joyful aesthetic. We upped the chic factor by a gajillion and helped them find their ‘happy’ at home.
